Current mood: 
crampy
I'm having cramps so bad today that I feel like I'm going to puke. Yay! I was expecting it to start on Tuesday, but as of Thursday night it hadn't. I figured I was mistaken about this being "the week", but Friday morning here it came with a vengeance. Ugh! I'm never going to have children--I wish there was some way to turn this off without surgery. Anyway, since motion is making me nauseous, I'll post a few things that I haven't gotten around to lately while I'm curled up in my chair in a fetal position waitng for the ibuprofin to kick in so I can go to work.
My house is covered in dead gnats. When I got home from work last night, the front door and porch light was a solid black, pulsing mass of the darned things. I came in the back door and turned off the light. Some of them left and I sent Skippy outside. When I let him back in, he was covered in them. I turned on my laptop and within seconds the screen was covered. I grabbed my can of air and blew them off so I could see. I went through the house to go use my Mac and noticed the dining room table was covered with gnats that had died as a result of the overhead light. They were all over my portfolio stuff. I grabbed the can of air and blew them onto the floor so their little bodies didn't leave anything on my pieces. Anyhow, this morning there are dead little gnat bodies almost everywhere. Either this evening or tomorrow I'll run the vacuum and suck them up. Don't really feel like it now. Besides, they'll be back tonight, I'm sure.
Yesterday was the first day of Spring. You wouldn't know it by the temps here. It reached almost 80°F here yesterday afternoon. I was so hot at work yesterday I thought I would faint. It didn't help that my period caused me to be warm anyway and then the swamp cooler is broken and can't be turned on and it was almost 90° in the store with really crappy ventillation. Ick!
I got my car back on Wednesday. Turns out the poor thing wouldn't start because the spark plugs/wires were toast. That's what I get for not performing routine maintenance like I should. He did do some rewiring to keep my "Check Engine" light from tripping for no reason. There was a really cool vehicle in the parking lot at the mechanic. I'll go back early next week and see if it's there again and snap a picture. It was a Subaru of some sort. It had huge tires and a raised suspension. I'd never seen anything like it. I almost went back in to ask the guy about it, but he was busy and I didn't want to bother him.
I made some coffee ice cream this morning with the machine Marcus got me for Christmas. Yum!
I've been curious about the blog publisher called WordPress. The one site that I'm really familiar with that uses it is Gina Divina. Someone emailed me about my site and asked about the post calendar. I decided now was the time to investigate it. If I can get it hacked to do everything my Movabletype does, I might switch.
Well, that's enough for now. Damn, I've got to get ready for work.
